Exam questions should not be posted.  And you create a new tab when it is logical to do so, i.e. when their is a logical code change >>> fact table >>> mapping loads >>> master calendar etc

Hi

It could be used o organized script.

To separate facts and dimensions and mapping tables.

Hi,

I also remember seeing that question in the certification exams, but I don't remember the possible answers. However, I can tell you that it has to do with making your script. as understandable as possible, not only to yourself, but to any other people that may be modifying your script.

For example if the qwv you're working on, extracts data from several sources, you may have your tabs divided per source DB (oracle, SAP, etc) or per business area in case you're integrating data for multiple areas,

What I mean, is that the correct answer should be something related to being organized and tidy when developing a QlikView app. Any other "tricky" answer is just for confusing,

I agree on the term of using tabs to make the script understandable and maybe separate scripts based on the source. At least that's what I usually do.

The other two answers were not related to organizing the script. I will try to remember them and get back to you.

Thxs for the answers..

I personnaly use one tab by output table in QV model

usually 1 tab for settings, as many tabs as dimensions tables, tab for mapping tables, ...

i don't think it is related to the number of lines

best regards

Chris
